That's the second time you've refered to sour grapes Robert.

If the scope of work changed after they spoke to us, good. Nobody wishes for bad things to happen to anyone, competitor or not.

I believe it went to E. Luke Green Co. out of Roanoke VA. I also think the scope allowed for nine of the seat rows to go with the tower, but I am not sure of that change. I also believe DEMTECH did the bang.

You are right this is a major screw-up. Instead of rotating the box they let it drop. All could have been avoided if the front was sawcut and cabled to rotate instead of all the columns dropping. Someones insurance will take a bigger hit than the contract was worth.

The video I watched shows the three upper rows, the full length, falling off. I'd say that's more than a "ding."
